David Foster Wallace
“The interesting thing is why we're so desperate for this anesthetic against loneliness.”
David Foster Wallace

Mario Puzo
“A friend should always underestimate your virtues and an enemy overestimate your faults”
Mario Puzo, The Godfather

David Foster Wallace
“...in real life I always seem to have a hard time winding up a conversation or asking somebody to leave, and sometimes the moment becomes so delicate and fraught with social complexity that I'll get overwhelmed trying to sort out all the different possible ways of saying it and all the different implications of each option and will just sort of blank out and do it totally straight -- 'I want to terminate the conversation and not have you be in my apartment anymore' -- which evidently makes me look either as if I'm very rude and abrupt or as if I'm semi-autistic and have no sense of how to wind up a conversation gracefully...I've actually lost friends this way.”
David Foster Wallace, Consider the Lobster and Other Essays

David Foster Wallace
“The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Jorge Luis Borges
“Yo no hablo de venganzas ni perdones, el olvido es la única venganza y el único perdón.”
Borges
